Subject:Re: Word 2000 Repaginating all the time! From:fred -dot- ridder -at- intel -dot- com To:"TECHWR-L" <techwr-l -at- lists -dot- raycomm -dot- com> Date:Tue, 11 Jun 2002 16:59:47
If you're working in Page Layout view, there's nothing you can do about
the
repagination. If you're working in Normal View, you can turn off
Background
Repagination (on the General tab of the Tools>Options dialog) so that
Word knows that you only want it to repaginate when you change views or
get ready to print the document. In general, I never use the Page Layout
view because it is simply too slow once a document is longer than a dozen
or so pages. Actually, I never got in the habit of using that view because
when it was first introduced (in the Word 95, was it?), the program would
crash about 50% of the time if you attempted to print from that view, and
that gets very tiresome very quickly. The view is more robust now, but
it's
just too damn slow on a big doc.
My opinions only; I don't speak for Intel.
